Follow-Up Meeting and Donations for Treasure Children's Charity
Treasure Children’s Charity was honored to receive a special follow-up visit and donation from one of our key supporters following an inspiring encounter earlier this month.
During a lecture titled “America@250: Opportunity for
Civic Renewal in the US,” our founder, Amon Byarugaba, a Political
Science student at Makerere University, met with a distinguished guest who was
deeply impressed by his passion for youth empowerment and community engagement.
Their discussion centered around the transformative work of Treasure
Children’s Charity — an NGO based in Nansana dedicated to improving the
lives of underprivileged children through education, health, and mentorship
programs.
Motivated by Amon’s vision and commitment, our guest decided
to make a meaningful contrib
ution before returning to the United States. As she
packed for her trip home, she gathered school supplies and essential toiletries
from her luggage to donate to the children served by Treasure Children’s
Charity. These thoughtful gifts will go a long way in supporting children’s
education and daily well-being.
In her words, “I wanted to do something to help the children
served by the Treasure Children’s Charity in Nansana. I was glad that Amon
could come back and see me again before I flew back to the US.”
Beyond the donation, this meeting sparked new ideas for
collaboration. Plans are underway to invite Amon to speak to the USFSP YMCA
Civic Fellows at the Civics Institute in the United States — to
share his insights on youth empowerment and community leadership. This
opportunity marks another step toward expanding the charity’s global
partnerships and influence.
Adding a personal touch to the exchange, Amon presented her
with a pair of beautifully crafted sandals — made from recycled tires — as a
symbol of sustainability and friendship. She expressed her appreciation, noting
that she looked forward to wearing them in sunny Florida, where sandals are
perfect all year round.
At Treasure Children’s Charity, we deeply appreciate this act of kindness and the growing network of individuals who believe in our mission. Together, we continue to build bridges of compassion and hope — empowering children and inspiring the next generation of leaders.https://treasurechild.org/article/follow-up-meeting-and-donations-for-treasure-childrens-charity
